Installing pedals
Always have your pedals installed or changed by
yourFLYERspecialistretailer,andfeelfreetoask
foradviceoncorrecthandling.
Pedalsmustbeinstalledwithasuitablespanner.
Please note that the two pedals are screwed on
in different directions and must be fastened with
hightorque(see“Technicaldata”).Applyassem

Please take note that the right pedal is different from
theleft.Youcanrecognisewhichpedalbelongson
which side from the screws which turn in opposite
directions.Usually,an“R”isembossedontheright
pedalandan“L”ontheleft.Screwtherightpedal
clockwiseandtheleftpedalanti-clockwiseintothe
cranks.
The pedals must be fastened with a suit-
able
 spanner. Observe the correct fas-
tening
torquewhenattachingthepedals.
Ensurethatthepedalsarettedstraight.
Ifthey arettedatanangle,thereisa
danger that they will break and cause a
fall.
For safety reasons, we strongly advise
notusingpedalswithclipsorstraps.
Ensure that you have read the manufac-
turer‘s instructions before using clipless
or
step-inpedals.Practiseclippingyour
shoesinandout of thepedals’locking
systembeforeyourrstrideina quiet,
safeplace.Cliplesspedalswhichdonot
properlyreleaseareasafetyhazard.
Thereleaseforceofstep-inpedalscan
beadjusted.Pleasetestthisonyourrst
ride with a setting that releases easily.
Regularly clean the step-in pedals and
servicethemwithasuitablelubricant.
Thepedalsurfacesmaybeveryrough.
This improves the grip on the pedal.
Leathersoles may bedamaged by the
roughsurface.
